The Final Walk-Through for a New Construction Condo in South Florida: A Luxury Buyer’s Checklist

A refined final walk-through is less about “finding flaws” and more about confirming the residence you contracted for is the residence you are taking title to.

This MILLION Luxury guide translates the standard blue-tape walk-through and punch-list process into a condo-specific, closing-ready approach.

The Perigon Miami Beach: OMA’s Oceanfront Condominium Vision on Collins Avenue

On Miami Beach’s storied Collins Avenue, The Perigon is positioning itself as a new kind of oceanfront address: architecture-forward, privacy-led, and intentionally resident-centric. Planned for 5333 Collins Avenue in the Mid-Beach corridor often called Millionaires’ Row, the 17-story, 73-residence tower brings together Office for Metropolitan Architecture (OMA) with interiors by Tara Bernerd & Partners and landscape architecture by Gustafson Porter + Bowman. With dual-water frontage between the Atlantic Ocean and Indian Creek, and an amenity program that emphasizes private hospitality, The Perigon reflects where today’s ultra-prime buyer is headed: fewer residences, more discretion, and design that reads as a long-term asset, not a trend.

This MILLION Luxury guide translates national noise benchmarks into a practical, buyer-oriented checklist, from screening tools and on-site listening sessions to the construction details that separate baseline code compliance from truly serene living.
